Almost A Week in Prague - Part 4

Day 4!! Please check out Part 1, Part 2, and Part 3 of the series if you haven't yet.

This day was the day we checked out of the hotel in the boonies and moved to Ibis Praha Wencelas Square.  We took the tram from one hotel to the other. Located right next to the Novotel Praha Wencelas Square, it is about 5 minutes walk from the National Museum. Mind you, the walk to the museum is downhill so it takes so much more energy to walk back. :D

For lunch we stopped at a pub called Plzeňská restaurace U Gráffů. We ordered Garlic Soup, Pork Tray, and Beer Cheese. Food was just okay. The Beer Cheese was veeeery stinky! The smell reminded me of rotten anchovies.

Since DH had been mostly working since we arrived, we walked around the Wencelas Square and I finally have some pictures with ME in it! ;)

I mentioned before that we had bought tickets to the Don Quixote Ballet at the State Opera Building. Since most people didn't dress up too fancy at the Magic Flute, we decided to dress more casual for the Ballet. Well, it turned out that the State Opera building is a nicer, bigger building and people who went to see the ballet dressed up fancier. Oh well.....

The State Opera building was quite amazing. The lobby was impressive and the inside was even more so.




Cheers!

Nintendo Switch Sleeve Tutorial

Hi! I'm Kirana from woofkiki.blogspot.co.id . I am going to write an introduction for this blog post. We bought a Nintendo Switch in Japan.  I really liked it and played with it almost everyday. If you're wondering what a Nintendo Switch is, it is a video game where you can basically  "switch" everything. The joy-cons and even the game! You can also connect it to your TV. It would be nice to bring it around with you, but when you put it in your bag... Oh no! The screen scratched! So, this is a sleeve that will fix that. Let's get started!😊 Kirana Now the tutorial (by Kirana's mom)... 1. Make your pattern according to the picture below. It is basically a 6"x24" rectangle with a semi circle at one end. Note: this is not a printable pattern 1. Cut your outer fabric, lining, and batting(optional). In this tutorial, I used minky for lining and a pre-quilted fabric for the cover, so I didn't need extra batting. For batting, I recomm...

Labuan Bajo 2023 Part 3 - 3 Days 2 Nights Diving Trip With Chakana Liveaboard

  Photo credit: Lukas Rissing @thestudypacker A live-aboard experience is one of the highlights of Labuan Bajo. It has been on my bucket list for a while but every time I tried to go, something just didn't work out.... until now! The opportunity arose to join an impressive-looking boat this year and the dates matched Miss Kiki's holiday perfectly, how could I not take this rare chance! With less than a month to prepare, we booked plane tickets, accommodations, and whatever equipment we thought we might need. So off we flew to Labuan Bajo with little preparation and a lot of faith. ;) You can read the first and second parts of the trip in my previous posts. After we checked out of our hotel on the third day, we went to the pier and hopped on to a dinghy that took us to Chakana Liveaboard, a 47-meter-long phinisi-style yacht that was going to be our accommodation for the next two nights. My heart raced as we approached the pretty boat and spotted a group of staff excitedly wavi...

World of Ghibli Exhibition Jakarta 2017

A few months back I received an email about World of Ghibli exhibition in Jakarta. My skeptical brain immediately thought, "Aah, how good could it be... I've visited the museum in Mitaka   and it's probably not going to be any better." Fast forward to August, a few of my Japan loving friends mentioned that rumours said that the displays are very good, made by Indonesians in cooperations with Ghibli representatives from Japan. In fact, so good that the Japanese company plans to take the displays and give them a home in Japan. Well hearing this from several different people definitely piqued my interest and I decided to check it out. It turned out that Miss Kiki and DH also wanted to go so I bought tickets from Traveloka  because they had a sale.  In the morning of our visit day, I asked Miss Kiki if she wanted to dress up as Kiki when she goes and she excitedly said yes. I made her a red bow headband with Cotton and Steel's Supreme Solid in Bandana  ...
